Use stickers for indoor location

[yohki]

Hi,
is it possible to use Estimote Stickers for indoor location instead of Beacons?

Thanks,

Hi Yoshi!

Great question - no it is not possible.
Stickers are designed to provide short-range information that object of some kind is in your proximity and in what state it is (moving, temperature and other fun stuff) helping transform common objects into IoT Nearable. Because of that its range is smaller and its design is not that well suited for stuff like Indoor Location

Hi marcin,

I am working on indoor navigation. My app has to show alert when user reaches some destination. In this case can i use sticker to show alert?

Thanks

Of course!
Just remember that sticker has quite small range so the user will need to be really close.
